When exterior walls are opened for drywall, the city building department reviewer wants to see the insulation before it is covered. In Camarillo that look is part of the energy compliance check on a wall job, and the batts have to be visible at full depth in the cavity, with no voids behind wiring. Photos of the open walls are kept for the file.

What the energy check wants

Reviewers check that the insulation value matches the plan, that batts touch the sheathing and the frame on all sides, and that wires and pipes are not squeezing the material flat. Gaps at the top and bottom plates and around windows get foam or a cut batt. Where a wall faces the garage, the board type matters as well. A vapor retarder is verified where the plan calls for one. Photos of each wall are taken before the board goes up, and the batts are checked against them.

Coastal zone and timing

If a lot sits within the state coastal zone, an extra review can apply to exterior work, and the city confirms whether a given address is in it. Where salt air reaches a lot, exterior fasteners and flashings should be galvanized or coated, so that hardware is specified on outside walls. Inspections are booked before the walls are covered, and the crew hangs nothing until the sign-off is in. The quote lists each hold, so drywall and flooring dates follow the passed review.
